    Default $250 real-world MT900 supercar design contest

    Hi,

    I am the Director of Engineering for Mosler Supercars. We build the carbon-fiber chassis/body MT900 (560hp 2450lbs)...pretty fast.

    We want to get some design ideas for a new US-spec dashboard (all carbon-fiber).

    I want to run a contest with a $250 winner, $150 second place and $50 third place. The project is to design a complete dashboard with radio, instrument pod (see evodash.com), HVAC controls, and vents (see pic of vent below).

    We will pay the winner another $800 if he/she produces a 'finished' product that we can import into our 3-D Unigraphics program and subsequently make a mold and print out any labeling required.

    Photo of the car is attached. Photos of the existing dash will follow. NOTE: Only the attachment points of the dash need to stay where they are. Free your mind and go exotic!

    DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS 10-7-2004

    For some reason I don't believe the validity of the person posting.

    Want to prove to me, and the rest of beyond that this isn't a scam?

    You can build a full carbon fibre supercar but you need some teenagers help in making a dash?

    Something doesn't add up here.

    I recieved a pm from this idiot a while ago as well....needless to say I ignored him....

    Don't know exactly what he is tryiing to pull but my guess is that he wants us to design something for his highschool class or something and he will just use one of the pics he likes to show that his "homework" is done

    Check out the site he sources for the instrument pod

    www.evodash.com

    Not exactly a professional-looking site, no?

    What a clown.
